Refraction portrays what you see when you look into the water to find another world—where light is bent and twisted here and there. It looks directly into shallow water, the composition is built from overlapping stones whose edges soften and shift under the surface.
Warm ochres and muted blues mix with thin, shimmers of movement of water and light. Rather than depicting a single moment, Refraction holds many moments at once: light passing, water moving, stones remaining.
At its core, Refraction is about attentiveness to what becomes visible when we slow down.
